Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to modified release formulations of and methods of administration of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor.
  • BTK Bruton's tyrosine kinase
  • the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor is Compound (I) as disclosed herein and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
  • Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is a potent BTK inhibitor and hence can be useful for the treatment of diseases such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory diseases.
  • Therapeutic agents can be administered to patients via several different routes such as oral, topical, intravenous, subcutaneous, inhalation, etc. Oral dosing of therapeutics is by far the most preferred route of administration and offers multiple advantages over other routes of administration. Orally delivered drugs are easily self-administered, thereby resulting in increased patient compliance and obviating the requirement for specialized delivery devices for injectable or inhaled therapies or delivery in a therapeutic setting. Oral administration is typically the safest route of getting a drug into the body since it does not require complicated devices or puncturing of body surfaces or membranes. Additionally, dosage is readily controlled, which can be challenging for other modes of administration such as inhaled therapies.
  • obtaining consistent and adequate circulating levels of drug with oral dosing can be challenging due to, among other things: poor aqueous solubility; slow dissolution rate in biological fluids; poor stability of drug at physiological pH; poor permeation through biomembranes; extensive presystemic metabolism; and inadequate or inconsistent systemic absorption between individuals or within specific regions of the gastro-intestinal system.
  • drug absorption can vary from therapy to therapy and depends upon numerous factors such as whether the patient is in a fed or fasted state at the time of administration, or whether the drug is taken concurrently with other medications. From a safety standpoint, minimizing the total dosage requirement for efficacy as well as reducing variability in absorption should allow for fewer unwanted side effects. Therefore, specific methods for delivery of an oral medication which allow efficient and consistent exposure of the medication are highly desirable.
  • Targeted therapy has received increased attention, particularly in the oncology area, due to the clinical success of kinase inhibitors as anti-cancer agents.
  • the ongoing challenges to the development of targeted therapies include achieving high selectivity for the primary target and prolonged inhibition to maximize their therapeutic efficacy.
  • Covalent drugs have become a highly attractive approach to designing next generation targeted therapies due to their enhanced ability to achieve high selectivity as well as prolonged inhibition even with significantly reduced systemic exposure of the drugs.
  • Covalent drugs achieve their high selectivity and exceptional potency due to the covalent interaction with a specific cysteine residue in the active site of proteins to which the drug molecule binds. This covalent binding additionally provides prolonged efficacy with increased duration of action that outlasts the systemic exposure of the drug.
  • Drugs containing an acrylamide moiety as Michael acceptors generally react irreversibly with thiols like glutathione and may also react irreversibly with proteins other than the desired target, especially proteins with hyper-reactive cysteines.
  • Reversible covalent drug molecules i.e., drugs which contain a Michael acceptor with a second electron withdrawing group
  • AUC plasma area under the curve
  • C max values resulting in suboptimal efficacy in vivo.
  • the poor bioavailability of this new class of drugs can be attributed, in part, to the reactivity of reversible covalent Michael acceptor moieties in these drugs. Accordingly, by limiting the exposure of the reversible covalent drugs to the stomach where the combination of low pH and digestive or metabolic enzymes and other sources of thiols occur, a significant increase in systemic exposure of the drug can be obtained.
  • ibrutinib an irreversible covalently bound drug molecule
  • AUC AUC
  • Formulations Comprising Ibrutinib, WO 2014/004707, published Jan. 3, 2014 Gastric bypass of ibrutinib should increase bioavailability and/or reduce or altogether eliminate potential adverse side effects of this drug, such as diarrhea, nausea, emesis, and dizziness.
  • metabolizing enzymes such as cysteine proteases, mucins, transporters, and reactive thiol containing molecules in the stomach, such as glutathione
  • cysteine proteases such as cysteine proteases, mucins, transporters, and reactive thiol containing molecules in the stomach, such as glutathione
  • reactive thiol containing molecules in the stomach such as glutathione
  • the combination of digestive enzymes such as the cysteine protease, pepsin, transporters, and metabolizing enzymes such as CYP enzymes in the gastric mucosa
  • digestive enzymes such as the cysteine protease, pepsin, transporters, and metabolizing enzymes such as CYP enzymes in the gastric mucosa
  • metabolizing enzymes such as CYP enzymes in the gastric mucosa
  • Compound (I) is a reversible covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), which is a member of the Tec tyrosine kinase family.
  • BTK is expressed in most hematopoietic cells, such as B cells, mast cells, and macrophages, but not in T cells, natural killer cells, and plasma cells.
  • BTK plays a role in the development and activation of B cells. Mutations in the human BTK gene cause the inherited disease X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), with lack of peripheral B cells and low levels of serum Ig. In XLA, the primary immune deficit is B cell specific.

If an amorphous form is the major fraction of the composition, the amount may be further compared to the total weight of the solid subject to analysis. This is done by comparing the relative intensities of the peaks from the diffraction pattern of the unknown solid powder composition with a calibration curve derived from the X-Ray diffraction patterns of pure known samples.
  • the curve can be calibrated based on the X-Ray powder diffraction pattern for the strongest peak from a pure sample of crystalline forms of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof).

Description

    CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • The present application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application. No. 62/356,345, filed Jun. 29, 2016, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
    • FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • The present disclosure relates to modified release formulations of and methods of administration of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor.
  • The Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor is Compound (I) as disclosed herein and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is a potent BTK inhibitor and hence can be useful for the treatment of diseases such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory diseases.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • Therapeutic agents can be administered to patients via several different routes such as oral, topical, intravenous, subcutaneous, inhalation, etc. Oral dosing of therapeutics is by far the most preferred route of administration and offers multiple advantages over other routes of administration. Orally delivered drugs are easily self-administered, thereby resulting in increased patient compliance and obviating the requirement for specialized delivery devices for injectable or inhaled therapies or delivery in a therapeutic setting. Oral administration is typically the safest route of getting a drug into the body since it does not require complicated devices or puncturing of body surfaces or membranes. Additionally, dosage is readily controlled, which can be challenging for other modes of administration such as inhaled therapies.
  • Despite numerous advantages, obtaining consistent and adequate circulating levels of drug with oral dosing can be challenging due to, among other things: poor aqueous solubility; slow dissolution rate in biological fluids; poor stability of drug at physiological pH; poor permeation through biomembranes; extensive presystemic metabolism; and inadequate or inconsistent systemic absorption between individuals or within specific regions of the gastro-intestinal system. Additionally, drug absorption can vary from therapy to therapy and depends upon numerous factors such as whether the patient is in a fed or fasted state at the time of administration, or whether the drug is taken concurrently with other medications. From a safety standpoint, minimizing the total dosage requirement for efficacy as well as reducing variability in absorption should allow for fewer unwanted side effects. Therefore, specific methods for delivery of an oral medication which allow efficient and consistent exposure of the medication are highly desirable.
  • Targeted therapy has received increased attention, particularly in the oncology area, due to the clinical success of kinase inhibitors as anti-cancer agents. The ongoing challenges to the development of targeted therapies include achieving high selectivity for the primary target and prolonged inhibition to maximize their therapeutic efficacy. Covalent drugs have become a highly attractive approach to designing next generation targeted therapies due to their enhanced ability to achieve high selectivity as well as prolonged inhibition even with significantly reduced systemic exposure of the drugs. Covalent drugs achieve their high selectivity and exceptional potency due to the covalent interaction with a specific cysteine residue in the active site of proteins to which the drug molecule binds. This covalent binding additionally provides prolonged efficacy with increased duration of action that outlasts the systemic exposure of the drug. Drugs containing an acrylamide moiety as Michael acceptors generally react irreversibly with thiols like glutathione and may also react irreversibly with proteins other than the desired target, especially proteins with hyper-reactive cysteines.
  • Reversible covalent drug molecules (i.e., drugs which contain a Michael acceptor with a second electron withdrawing group) can exhibit poor bioavailability or delayed systemic absorption when the drug is administered orally, which can be manifested by low plasma area under the curve (AUC) and/or Cmax values, resulting in suboptimal efficacy in vivo. The poor bioavailability of this new class of drugs can be attributed, in part, to the reactivity of reversible covalent Michael acceptor moieties in these drugs. Accordingly, by limiting the exposure of the reversible covalent drugs to the stomach where the combination of low pH and digestive or metabolic enzymes and other sources of thiols occur, a significant increase in systemic exposure of the drug can be obtained.
  • In addition, limiting the exposure of irreversible covalent drug molecules to the stomach may also lead to a significant increase in systemic exposure of the drug and a reduction in potential adverse side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, emesis, and dizziness. For example, when ibrutinib, an irreversible covalently bound drug molecule, is administered intraduodenally, the bioavailability unexpectedly increased from 21% to 100% compared to direct oral administration as determined by AUC (D. M. Goldstein, Formulations Comprising Ibrutinib, WO 2014/004707, published Jan. 3, 2014). Gastric bypass of ibrutinib should increase bioavailability and/or reduce or altogether eliminate potential adverse side effects of this drug, such as diarrhea, nausea, emesis, and dizziness.
  • Furthermore, the expression of metabolizing enzymes, such as cysteine proteases, mucins, transporters, and reactive thiol containing molecules in the stomach, such as glutathione, can also contribute to the low oral bioavailability of reversible covalent Michael acceptor-containing drugs (see, e.g., Johnson D. S., et. al., Future Med Chem. 2010 Jun. 1; 2(6):949-964 and Potashman M. H. et al. J. Med. Chem., Vol 52, No. 5. Pgs. 1231-1246). For example, the combination of digestive enzymes, such as the cysteine protease, pepsin, transporters, and metabolizing enzymes such as CYP enzymes in the gastric mucosa, can result in high chemical and/or metabolic transformation of the reversible and irreversible covalent Michael acceptors at low pH. Accordingly, by avoiding exposure of the reversible covalent drugs to the stomach where the combination of low pH and digestive or metabolic enzymes and other sources of thiols occur, a significant increase in systemic exposure of these drugs can be obtained. Additionally, avoidance of exposure to the stomach may reduce or altogether eliminate potential adverse side effects of these drugs such as diarrhea and emesis, commonly called vomiting.
  • Accordingly, it would be desirable to have modified release formulations of covalent drug molecules which avoid extensive exposure to the stomach. The present disclosure provides such advantageous formulations.
  • Compound (I) is a reversible covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), which is a member of the Tec tyrosine kinase family. BTK is expressed in most hematopoietic cells, such as B cells, mast cells, and macrophages, but not in T cells, natural killer cells, and plasma cells. BTK plays a role in the development and activation of B cells. Mutations in the human BTK gene cause the inherited disease X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), with lack of peripheral B cells and low levels of serum Ig. In XLA, the primary immune deficit is B cell specific. The development of drugs which inhibit BTK can have therapeutic significance in the treatment of both B cell-related hematological cancers (e.g., non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL)), and autoimmune diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, pemphigus, IBD, lupus, and asthma).
  • Compound (I), currently in development for treatment of autoimmune diseases, is disclosed in Example 31 of the PCT International Application No. PCT/US2013/058614, filed on Sep. 6, 2013.
  • PCT International Application No. PCT/US2015/000303, filed on Dec. 23, 2015, refers to site specific administration of Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

  • As used herein, “modified-release” as applied to a drug product refers to drug products that alter the timing and/or the rate of release of the drug substance. A modified-release dosage form is a formulation in which the drug-release characteristics of time course and/or location are chosen to accomplish therapeutic or convenience objectives not offered by conventional dosage forms such as solutions, ointments, or promptly dissolving dosage forms. Several types of modified-release oral drug products are recognized. Non-limiting examples include:
      • 1. Extended-release drug products. A dosage form that allows at least about a two-fold reduction in dosage frequency as compared to that drug presented as an immediate-release (conventional) dosage form. Examples of extended-release dosage forms include controlled-release, sustained-release, and long-acting drug products.
      • 2. Delayed-release drug products. A dosage form that releases a discrete portion or portions of drug at a time other than promptly after administration. An initial portion may be released promptly after administration. Enteric-coated dosage forms are common delayed-release products (e.g., enteric-coated aspirin and other NSAID products).
      • 3. Targeted-release drug products. A dosage form that releases drug at or near the intended physiologic site of action. Targeted-release dosage forms may have either immediate- or extended-release characteristics.
      • 4. Orally disintegrating tablets (ODT). ODT have been developed to disintegrate rapidly in the saliva after oral administration. ODT may be used without the addition of water. The drug is dispersed in saliva and swallowed with little or no water.
  • “Treating” or “treatment” of a disease includes:
      • (1) inhibiting the disease, i.e., arresting or reducing the development of the disease or its clinical symptoms; or
      • (2) relieving the disease, i.e., causing regression of the disease or its clinical symptoms.
  • A “therapeutically effective amount” means the amount of Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that, when administered to a mammal in need or recognized need of treatment for treating a disease, is sufficient to effect such treatment for the disease. The “therapeutically effective amount” will vary depending on the compound, the disease and its severity, and the age, weight, etc., of the mammal to be treated.
  • “Substantially pure” as used herein refers to a compound (or salt thereof) such as Compound (1) (or salt thereof), wherein at least about 70% by weight of the compound (or salt thereof) is present as the given solid state form. For example, the phrase “amorphous form of a salt of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) in substantially pure amorphous form” refers to a solid state form of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof), wherein more than about 70% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is an amorphous form with the remaining present in a crystalline form. In one embodiment, such compositions contain at least about 80% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) in amorphous form. In another embodiment, at least about 85% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is in amorphous form. In yet another embodiment, at least about 90% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is in amorphous form. In yet another embodiment, at least about 95% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is in amorphous form. In yet another embodiment, at least about 97% by weight or at least about 98% by weight of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is in amorphous form. In yet another embodiment, at least about 99% by weight of Compound (I) is in amorphous form. The relative amounts of crystalline and/or amorphous forms in a solid mixture can be determined by methods well-known in the art. For example, X-Ray diffraction provides a convenient and practical means for quantitative determination of the relative amounts of crystalline and/or amorphous forms in a solid mixture. X-Ray diffraction is adaptable to quantitative applications because the intensities of the diffraction peaks of a given compound in a mixture are proportional to the fraction of the corresponding powder in the mixture. Although all salts of Compound (I) are amorphous, if any crystalline form of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) is present in a mixture, percent composition of crystalline Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) in an unknown composition can be determined. Preferably, the measurements are made on solid powder of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof). The X-Ray powder diffraction patterns of an unknown composition may be compared to known quantitative standards containing pure crystalline forms, if any, of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) to identify the percent ratio of a particular crystalline form. If an amorphous form is the major fraction of the composition, the amount may be further compared to the total weight of the solid subject to analysis. This is done by comparing the relative intensities of the peaks from the diffraction pattern of the unknown solid powder composition with a calibration curve derived from the X-Ray diffraction patterns of pure known samples. The curve can be calibrated based on the X-Ray powder diffraction pattern for the strongest peak from a pure sample of crystalline forms of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof). The calibration curve may be created in a manner known to those of skill in the art. For example, five or more artificial mixtures of crystalline forms of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof), at different amounts, may be prepared. In a non-limiting example, such mixtures may contain, about 2%, about 5%, about 7%, about 8%, and about 10% of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) for each crystalline form. Then, X-Ray diffraction patterns are obtained for each artificial mixture using standard X-Ray diffraction techniques. Slight variations in peak positions, if any, may be accounted for by adjusting the location of the peak to be measured. The intensities of the selected characteristic peak(s) for each of the artificial mixtures are then plotted against the known weight percentages of the crystalline form. The resulting plot is a calibration curve that allows determination of the amount of the crystalline forms of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof) in an unknown sample. For the unknown mixture of crystalline and amorphous forms of Compound (I) (or a salt thereof), the intensities of the selected characteristic peak(s) in the mixture, relative to an intensity of this peak in a calibration mixture, may be used to determine the percentage of the given crystalline form in the composition, with the remainder determined to be the amorphous material. The overall crystallinity may be determined as follows:

  • % Crystallinity=(C/A+C−B)×100
  • where C is area under crystalline peaks, A is area under amorphous halo, and B is background noise due to air scattering, fluorescence, etc.
  • “Amorphous form” means a solid which does not possess a distinguishable crystal lattice and the molecular arrangement of molecules lack a long range order characteristic of a crystal. In particular, amorphous denotes a material that does not show a sharp Bragg diffraction peak.
  • The term “cellulose derivative” or “polysaccharide derivative” refers to a cellulose polymer or polysaccharide wherein at least a portion of the hydroxyls on the saccharide repeat units have been reacted to form an ether or ester linkage. Examples include and are not limited to hydroxyalkyl celluloses, hydroxyalkyl alkylcelluloses, and carboxyalkyl cellulose esters, such as hydroxypropyl methylcelluloses (e.g., hypromelloses or HPMC), hydroxypropylcelluloses (e.g., HPC), and the like.
  • The term “hydrophilic” for purposes of the present disclosure relates to materials that have affinity toward water.
  • The term “water soluble” for purposes of the present disclosure relates to materials that dissolve to the extent required, in an aqueous media at a pH of from about 1 to about 8, and is not particularly limited.
  • The term “water swellable” for purposes of the present disclosure relates to materials that are relatively insoluble in water, but which can absorb water.

The hydroxypropyl methylcellulose polymers may be present in the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure in amounts from about 0.1% to about 50% by weight.
  • The hydroxypropylcellulose polymers that may be used in the present disclosure also include, for example, polymers available under the brand name Klucel™, available from Nippon Soda Co. Hydroxypropylcellulose polymers available under the brand names Klucel EF, Klucel LF, Klucel JF and Klucel GF, whose 2% by weight aqueous solutions have viscosities less than 1000 cP, are examples of low viscosity hydrophilic polymers. A hydroxypropylcellulose polymer available under the brand name Klucel ME, whose 2% by weight aqueous solution has a viscosity in the range from 4,000-6,500 cP, is a medium viscosity hydrophilic polymer. Hydroxypropyl cellulose polymers available sold as HPC-SL, HPC-L, and HPC-M, whose 2% by weight aqueous solutions have viscosities of 3-6 cP, 6-10 cP, and 150-400 cP, respectively, are examples of low viscosity hydrophilic polymers, while HPC-H has a viscosity of 1,000-4000 cP and is an example of a medium viscosity hydrophilic polymer. The hydroxypropylcellulose polymers may be present in an amount from about 0.1% to about 50% by weight.
  • Water swellable materials suitable for making modified release dosage forms are compounds that are able to expand when they are exposed to aqueous fluids, such as gastro-intestinal fluids. One or more water swellable compounds may be present in a coating and optionally one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
  • Suitable compounds which can be used as water swellable substances include, for example, low-substituted hydroxypropyl celluloses, e.g., L-HPC, cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidones, e.g., PVP-XL, Kollidone™ CL and Polyplasdone™ XL, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose, e.g., Ac-di-sol™ and Primellose™, sodium starch glycolate, e.g., Primojel™, sodium carboxymethylcelluloses, e.g., Nymcel™ ZSB10, sodium carboxymethyl starches, e.g., Explotab™, ion-exchange resins, e.g., Dowex™ or Amberlite™ products, microcrystalline cellulose, e.g., Avicel™ products, starches and pregelatinized starches, e.g., Starch 1500™ and Sepistab ST200™, formalin-casein, e.g., Plas-Vita™, and combinations comprising one or more of the foregoing water swellable substances.
  • In some embodiments, hydrophilic materials include polyalkylene oxides, polysaccharide gums, and crosslinked polyacrylic acids. Suitable polyalkylene oxides, such as linear polymers of unsubstituted ethylene oxide, include Polyox™ products from The Dow Chemical Company, U.S., having molecular weights about 100,000 to about 7,000,000 Da. Other useful polyalkylene oxide polymers are made from propylene oxide or mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
  • Polysaccharide gums, both natural and modified (semi-synthetic), can be used. Non-limiting examples are dextran, xanthan gum, gellan gum, welan gum, and rhamsan gum.
  • Crosslinked polyacrylic acids that can be used include those having properties similar to those described above for alkyl-substituted cellulose and polyalkylene oxide polymers. Useful crosslinked polyacrylic acids include those with viscosities about 4,000 to about 40,000 cP (for a 1% aqueous solution at 25° C.). Three specific examples are CARBOPOL™ grades 971 P, 974P, and 934P (sold by The Lubrizol Corporation, Cleveland, Ohio, USA). Further examples are polymers known as WATER LOCK™, which are starch/acrylate/acrylamide copolymers available from Grain Processing Corporation, Muscatine, Iowa, USA.
  • The hydrophilicity and water swellability of these polymers cause the subcoat to swell in size after oral administration, due to ingress of water. The release rate of an active agent from the subcoat is primarily dependent upon the rate of water inhibition and the rate at which the active agent dissolves and diffuses from the swollen polymer, which in turn is related to the solubility and dissolution rate of the active agent, the active agent particle size, and/or the active agent concentration in the dosage form.
  • Suitable “hydrophobic” materials are water-insoluble neutral or synthetic waxes, fatty alcohols such as lauryl, myristyl, stearyl, cetyl, or cetostearyl alcohol, fatty acids and derivatives thereof, including fatty acid esters such as such as glyceryl monostearate, glycerol monooleate, acetylated monoglycerides, stearin, palmitin, laurin, myristin, cetyl esters wax, glyceryl palmitostearate, glyceryl behenate, hydrogenated castor oils, cottonseed oils, fatty acid glycerides (mono-, di-, and tri-glycerides), hydrogenated fats, hydrocarbons, normal waxes, stearic acid, stearyl alcohol, materials having hydrocarbon backbones, and combinations comprising one or more of the foregoing materials. Suitable waxes include, but are not limited to, beeswax, Glycowax® (a N,N′-distearoylethyelenediamine, from Lonza), castor wax, carnauba wax, and wax-like substances.
  • The solid dosage forms described herein comprise an enteric coating, i.e., as an oral dosage form of a pharmaceutical composition as described herein which utilizes an enteric coating to affect the release of the compound in the intestine of the gastrointestinal tract. An “enterically coated” drug or tablet refers to a drug or tablet that is coated with a substance—i.e., with an “enteric coating”—that remains intact in the stomach but dissolves and releases the drug once the intestine (in one embodiment small intestine) is reached. As used herein, “enteric coating” is a material, such as a polymer material or materials which encase the therapeutically active agent either as a dosage form or as particles. Typically, a substantial amount or all of the enteric coating material is dissolved before the therapeutically active agent is released from the dosage form, so as to achieve delayed dissolution of the therapeutically active agent in the intestine. Enteric coatings are discussed, for example, Loyd, V. Allen; Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Twenty-first Ed., (Pharmaceutical Press, 2005; and P. J. Tarcha, Polymers for Controlled Drug Delivery, Chapter 3, CRC Press, 1991. Methods for applying enteric coatings to pharmaceutical compositions are well known in the art, and include, for example, methods disclosed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2006/0045822.
  • The dosage form may be a compressed or molded or extruded tablet (coated with an enteric coating or uncoated) containing granules, powder, pellets, beads or particles of Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (or any embodiments thereof) optionally admixed with other excipient(s), which are themselves coated with an enteric coating or uncoated provided at least the tablet and/or the granules, powder, pellets, beads or particles of Compound (I) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is coated. The oral dosage form may also be a capsule containing pellets, beads, or granules of Compound (1) and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (or any embodiments thereof) optionally admixed with other excipient(s). Some examples of coatings that were originally used as enteric coatings are beeswax and glyceryl monostearate; beeswax, shellac and cellulose, cetyl alcohol, and mastic and shellac, as well as shellac and stearic acid (U.S. Pat. No. 2,809,918) and polyvinylacetate and ethyl cellulose (U.S. Pat. No. 3,835,221). More recently, the enteric coatings used are neutral copolymers of polymethacrylic acid esters (Eudragit L30D). (F. W. Goodhart et al, Pharm. Tech., p. 64-71, April, 1984), copolymers of methacrylic acid and methacrylic acid methyl ester (Eudragit S), a neutral copolymer of polymethacrylic acid esters containing metallic stearates (see Mehta et al U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,728,512 and 4,794,001), cellulose acetate succinate, and hypromellose phthalate.
  • In some embodiments, the polymers described herein are ionic carboxylic polymers. In other embodiments, the polymers and compatible mixtures thereof, and some of their properties, include, but are not limited to:
  • Shellac: Also called purified lac, it is a refined product obtained from the resinous secretion of an insect. This coating dissolves in media of pH>7;
  • Acrylic polymers: The performance of acrylic polymers (primarily their solubility in biological fluids) can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. Examples of suitable acrylic polymers include methacrylic acid copolymers and ammonium methacrylate copolymers. The Eudragit series L, S, and RS (manufactured by Rohm Pharma and known as Evonik®) are available as solubilized in organic solvent, aqueous dispersion, or dry powders. The Eudragit series RL, NE, and RS are insoluble in the gastrointestinal tract but are permeable and are used primarily for colonic targeting. The Eudragit series L, L-30D and S are insoluble in stomach and dissolve in the intestine;
  • Cellulose Derivatives: Examples of suitable cellulose derivatives are: ethyl cellulose; reaction mixtures of partial acetate esters of cellulose with phthalic anhydride. The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) dissolves in pH>6. Aquateric (FMC) is an aqueous based system and is a spray dried CAP pseudolatex with particles <1 μm. Other components in Aquateric can include pluronics, Tweens, and acetylated monoglycerides. Other suitable cellulose derivatives include: cellulose acetate tritnellitate (Eastman); methylcellulose (Pharmacoat, Methocel); hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate (HPMCP); hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose succinate (HPMCS); and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS, e.g., AQOAT (Shin Etsu)). The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, HPMCP such as HP-50, HP-55, HP-55S, and HP-55F grades are suitable. The performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, suitable grades of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetate succinate include, but are not limited to, AS-LG (LF), which dissolves at pH 5, AS-MG (MF), which dissolves at pH 5.5, and AS-HG (HF), which dissolves at higher pH. These polymers are offered as granules, or as fine powders for aqueous dispersions.
  • Poly Vinyl Acetate Phthalate (PVAP): PVAP dissolves in pH>5, and it is much less permeable to water vapor and gastric fluids. Detailed description of above polymers and their pH-dependent solubility can be found at in the article entitled “Enteric coated hard gelatin capsules” by Professor Karl Thoma and Karoline Bechtold at http://pop.www.capsugel.com/media/library/enteric-coated-hard-gelatin-capsules.pdf.
  • In one embodiment, the enteric coating is made from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or ethacrylic acid polymers or copolymers, cellulose acetate (and its succinate and phthalate derivatives), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, hydroxyethyl ethyl cellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate tetrahydrophtalate, acrylic resin or shellac. In another embodiment the polymer is chosen from cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP; dissolves above pH 6), polyvinyl acetate phthalate (PVAP, disintegrates at pH 5), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate (HPMCP, grade HP50 disintegrates at pH 5 and HP50 disintegrates at 5.5), methylacrylic acid copolymers (Eudragit L 100 and L12.5 disintegrate between about 6 and about 7, Eudragit L-30 and L100-55 disintegrate at pH greater than 5.5 and Eudragit S100, S12.5 and FS 30D disintegrate at pH greater than 7).
  • In some embodiments, the enteric coating can, and usually does, contain a plasticizer and possibly other coating excipients such as colorants, talc, and/or magnesium stearate, which are well known in the art. Suitable plasticizers include triethyl citrate (Citroflex 2), triacetin (glyceryl triacetate), acetyl triethyl citrate (Citroflec A2), Carbowax 400 (polyethylene glycol 400), diethyl phthalate, tributyl citrate, acetylated monoglycerides, glycerol, fatty acid esters, propylene glycol, and dibutyl phthalate. In particular, ionic carboxylic acrylic polymers usually will contain about 10% to about 25% by weight of a plasticizer, especially dibutyl phthalate, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate, and triacetin.
  • Conventional coating techniques such as fluid bed or Wurster coaters, or spray or pan coating are employed to apply coatings. The coating thickness must be sufficient to ensure that the oral dosage form remains intact until the desired site of delivery in the intestinal tract is reached. The amount of plasticizer is optimized for each enteric coating layer and the applied amount of said polymer(s), in such a way that the mechanical properties, i.e., flexibility and hardness of the enteric coating layer(s), for instance exemplified as Vickers hardness, are adjusted so that if a tablet is desired the acid resistance of the pellets covered with enteric coating layer(s) does not decrease significantly during compression of pellets into tablets. The amount of plasticizer is usually above about 5% by weight of the enteric coating layer polymer(s). In one embodiment the amount of plasticizer is about 15% to 50% by weight of the enteric coating layer polymer(s). In another embodiment, the amount of plasticizer is about 20% to about 50% by weight of the enteric coating layer polymer(s). The maximum thickness of the applied enteric coating is normally only limited by processing conditions and the desired dissolution profile.
  • Colorants, surfactants, anti-adhesion agents, antifoaming agents, lubricants (e.g., carnuba wax or PEG) and other additives may be added to the coatings besides plasticizers to solubilize or disperse the coating material, and to improve coating performance and the coated product. To accelerate the dissolution of the enteric coat, a half-thickness, double coat of enteric polymer (for instance, Eudragit L30 D-55) may be applied, and the inner enteric coat may have a buffer up to about pH 6.0 in the presence of about 10% citric acid, followed by a final layer of standard Eudragit L 30 D-55. Applying two layers of enteric coat, each half the thickness of a typical enteric coat, Liu and Basit were able to accelerate enteric coating dissolution compared to a similar coating system applied, unbuffered, as a single layer (Liu, F. and Basit, A. Journal of Controlled Release. 147 (2010) 242-245). The intactness of the enteric coating may be measured, for example, by the degradation of the drug within the micropellets. The enteric coated dosage forms or pellets may be tested in dissolution testing first in gastric fluid and separately in intestinal fluid as described in USP to determine its function. Additives such as dispersants, colorants, pigmented polymers (e.g., poly(ethylacrylate, methylmethacrylate), anti-tacking and anti-foaming agents may also be included into the enteric coating layer(s). Other compounds may be added to increase film thickness and to decrease diffusion of acidic gastric juices into the acid susceptible material.
  • Formulations disclosed herein contain, unless stated otherwise, one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipient(s) such as binders, surfactants, diluents, buffering agents, antiadherents, glidants, hydrophilic or hydrophobic polymers, retardants, stabilizing agents or stabilizers, disintegrants or superdisintegrants, dispersants, antioxidants, antifoaming agents, fillers, flavors, colorants, lubricants, sorbents, preservatives, plasticizers, or sweeteners, or mixtures thereof, which facilitate processing of the drug molecule (or embodiments thereof disclosed herein) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof into preparations which can be used pharmaceutically. The pharmaceutically acceptable excipients can be in the coating and/or the core. Any of the well-known techniques and excipients may be used as suitable and as understood in the art, see for example, Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Twenty-first Ed., (Pharmaceutical Press, 2005); Liberman, H. A., Lachman, L., and Schwartz, J. B. Eds., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, Vol. 1-2 Taylor & Francis 1990; and R. I. Mahato, Ansel's Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems, Second Ed. (Taylor & Francis, 2012).
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may include one or more pH adjusting agents or buffering agents, for example, acids such as acetic, boric, citric, lactic, phosphoric, and hydrochloric acids; bases such as sodium hydroxide, sodium phosphate, sodium borate, sodium citrate, sodium acetate, sodium lactate, and tris-hydroxymethylaminomethane; and buffers such as citrate/dextrose, sodium bicarbonate, ammonium chloride, and the like. Such acids, bases and buffers are included in an amount required to maintain pH of the composition in an acceptable range.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include one or more salts in an amount required to bring osmolality of the composition into an acceptable range. Such salts include those having sodium, potassium or ammonium cations and chloride, citrate, ascorbate, borate, phosphate, bicarbonate, sulfate, thiosulfate or bisulfite anions; suitable salts include sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium thiosulfate, sodium bisulfite, and ammonium sulfate.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include one or more antifoaming agents to reduce foaming during processing, which can result in coagulation of aqueous dispersions, bubbles in the finished film, or generally impair processing. Exemplary anti-foaming agents include silicon emulsions and sorbitan sesquoleate.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include one or more antioxidants, such as non-thiol antioxidants, for example, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), sodium ascorbate, ascorbic acid, and tocopherol. In certain embodiments, antioxidants enhance chemical stability where required.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include one or more preservatives to inhibit microbial activity. Suitable preservatives include mercury-containing substances such as merfen and thiomersal; stabilized chlorine dioxide; and quaternary ammonium compounds such as benzalkonium chloride, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and cetylpyridinium chloride.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include one or more binders. Binders impart cohesive qualities and include, e.g., alginic acid and salts thereof; cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose (e.g., Methocel®), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose (e.g., Klucel®), ethylcellulose (e.g., Ethocel®), and microcrystalline cellulose (e.g., Avicel®); microcrystalline dextrose; amylose; magnesium aluminum silicate; polysaccharide acids; bentonites; gelatin; polyvinyl-pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, crosspovidone; povidone; starch; pregelatinized starch; tragacanth, dextrin, maltodextrin, a sugar, such as sucrose (e.g., Dipac®), glucose, dextrose, molasses, mannitol, sorbitol, xylitol (e.g., Xylitab®), and lactose; a natural or synthetic gum such as acacia, tragacanth, ghatti gum mucilage of isapol husks, polyvinylpyrrolidone (e.g., Polyvidone® CL, Kollidon® CL, Polyplasdone XL-10), larch arabogalactan, Veegum®, polyethylene glycol, polyethylene oxide, waxes, sodium alginate, and the like.
  • In general, binder levels of about 10% to about 70% are used in powder-filled gelatin capsule formulations. Binder usage level in tablet formulations varies whether direct compression, wet granulation, roller compaction, or usage of other excipients such as fillers which themselves can act as moderate binder. Formulators skilled in art can determine the binder level for the formulations, but binder usage level of up to about 70% in tablet formulations is common.
  • In some embodiments, the formulations may also include dispersing agents and/or viscosity modulating agents.

    • EXAMPLES Example 1 Examples of Composition of the Modified Release Drug Product
  • Compound (I) tablet is a modified release oral dosage form. The present disclosure employs a “design space” concept to optimize the modified release (MR) performance of the tablet drug product. The “design space” is three dimensional, with varying dose, the percentage of drug release modifier and the polymer coat percentage to control the region of drug release and therefore delay the drug release time.
  • The design space limits are:
      • 1. Varying dose range from 30 mg (low dose; DL (D=Dose; L=Low)) to 100 mg (high dose; DH (H=High));
      • 2. Drug release modifier (Dissolution Aid) to control drug release in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 hours post-gastric emptying. The drug release modifier is Hypromellose K100 Premium LV and will be varied between 0% (Dissomod is AF; F=Fast; No drug release modifier) and 35% (Dissomod is AS; S=Slow; 35% drug release modifier); and
      • 3. Enteric polymer coat (e.g., Eudragit L30 D-55) percentage between 7% (PF; F=Fast) and 16% (PS; S=Slow) to control drug release, post gastric emptying.
  • Compound (I) tablet can be manufactured as a unit dose selected from within the ‘design space’. If higher doses than 100 mg are required, multiple dose units can be administered.
  • The design space is shown in FIG. 2.
  • Under the composition details for the extremes of the “design space” the Compound (1) drug substance mass, Hypromellose K100 Premium LV and Eudragit L30 D55, as shown in Table 1 and 2, can be varied. Any interim formulation within the “design space” can be manufactured. All other components of the formulation will remain constant or adjusted to maintain the weight of the tablet.
